President Biden lambasted a Texas directive ordering child welfare investigations into parents of transgender kids who approve certain treatments for their offspring, describing it as “government overreach at its worst.” “In recent days, elected leaders in Texas have launched a cynical and dangerous campaign targeting transgender children and their parents,” Biden said in a statement late Wednesday. “The Governor of Texas has directed state officials to open child abuse investigations into families simply because they have provided access to affirming care for their children. This is government overreach at its worst,” the president continued, accusing Republican Gov. Greg Abbott of attempting to “score political points” with the order.
